Ruby arrived in the village earlier this year and has been navigating her complicated relationship with her husband Caleb, who had an affair with Tracy Robinson. As a result, Ruby has been facing

challenges with Caleb’s family, leading some to draw parallels between her and the villainous Kim Tate.

Speaking about her character’s behavior, Beth explained that Ruby’s approach to dealing with conflict is impulsive and reactive. She often acts without thinking and then experiences regret afterward. Unlike Kim Tate, who is portrayed as cool and calculated, Ruby’s responses are fiery and driven by fear of losing Caleb.

Beth noted that Ruby’s behavior stems from her insecurity and fear of abandonment. She sees Caleb’s family as a threat and reacts by pushing them away instead of trying to build relationships with them. This approach ultimately creates more tension and conflict within the family.

Addressing Caleb’s affair with Tracy, Beth explained that Ruby feels threatened by the possibility of him falling in love with someone else. Despite their past infidelities, Ruby deeply loves Caleb and sees him as her everything.

As for the future of Ruby and Caleb’s relationship, Beth mentioned that it’s ultimately up to the scriptwriters. However, Ruby’s attachment to Caleb is so strong that she can’t imagine a world without him.

Overall, Beth’s insights shed light on the complexities of Ruby’s character and her motivations in Emmerdale’s storyline.
